And now school just started so I'm learning how to deal with it all. With him being away from me. But we will definitely not let ITP control his life. Thanks for your encouragement.mmercredihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01492217513896439411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1908820763089209845.post-72028365772801458092013-07-26T10:21:40.209-04:002013-07-26T10:21:40.209-04:00We can learn a lot from Samuel.

I have a million dollar baby, now 23 myself. He was born two months early, I understand those early years all too well..... But for you to have this incredible young man with ITP!!! WOW, it hits the little ones so hard. He is a soldier and I feel I am walking by his side. He and your family will be a constant in my prayers that a cure will soon be found for all of us.
